Move over chicken, there’s a new bird in town! I recently worked with my friends at The Great American Turkey Company to create a recipe for their brand new cookbook, Let’s Talk Turkey – eeek, how exciting! I’ve been loving their products since I discovered them at my local Fresh Market. They have a variety of pre-marinated turkey breast cutlets and flavorful sausages that make creating healthy meals a breeze! We already know that salads are my jam, so I created a delicious curried turkey salad using my favorite Spicy Masala Turkey Cutlets. Yum!
Before we get into the recipe, let’s talk a little bit more about The Great American Turkey Company and why I love their products:
- high protein/low fat
- no preservatives
- simple ingredients
- gluten free
- turkeys are raised on family-owned farms
- a portion of sales goes directly to the nonprofit Wholesome Waves
My go-to is their pre-marinated turkey breast cutlets which are packed with flavor and ready to be turned into quick, healthy meals! They do all of the work for you – the creations you can come up with are endless!
The curried turkey salad I created for the cookbook is perfect to prep for lunches on a busy week! It’s quick and easy to make and bursting with bright, fresh flavors. The Spicy Masala Turkey Cutlets provide the perfect flavor for our turkey salad. With a few additional ingredients, we have a delicious and healthy meal.
The turkey salad is loaded with creamy Greek yogurt, crunchy celery and cashews, sweet cranberries, plus some shredded carrots, green onion, and cilantro – YUM! You can serve it a variety of ways too! I like to serve it as a sandwich, inside of pita bread, on top of a salad, or with a side of crackers. No matter how you serve it, you’re going to love it!
Be sure to check out my recipe along with so many others in the new Let’s Talk Turkey cookbook, available on The Great American Turkey Company website. You can even download a free PDF copy! GATC products are currently available for purchase online or at The Fresh Market, Price Chopper, or FreshDirect.
